what i wore: tinsel + tulle

There is something about the holidays that makes me want to wear anything and everything that sparkles. Also, since I was about four years old, I have been dreaming of a day when I could wear a big tutu and it would be socially acceptable. Twenty-one years later, the tutu/tulle craze has finally arrived!

I was so excited when I ordered this Modcloth Tulle Skirt. I REALLY wanted the cream one from Anthropologie, but with the holidays coming soon I was on a budget. When it arrived, it was a little too big in the waist, and the tulle wasn't as pronounced as I had hoped. See below.

Enter my mother, the DIY darling. She altered the skirt for me and added a few extra layers of tulle. Not only do I love it when my mother helps me with my clothes because it reminds me of her whenever I wear it, but I also like knowing that I truly have a one of a kind piece! Thanks Mom!
